Chemistry

Q: What is chemistry? A: Chemistry is the study of the properties and uses of elements. Chemistry is the study of the properties and uses of materials. Chemistry is the study of organic and inorganic substances. It once was believed that organic compounds were produced exclusively by living things, but scientists today can synthesize many organic materials from inorganic ones. It once was believed that the chemical structure of elements was in the form of boxes or linear, but today these chemical structures are being questioned. Who proposed this chemical structure? How did they reach this type of chemical structure? What did they do to reach to this type of structure? Who verified the findings? It will be in the best interest of industry to focus on elements, their properties, and their uses. Thus, it will be in the best interest of industry to focus on materials, their properties, and their uses.

Materials What should you know about a material? What are materials, exactly? Who are materials scientists and what do they do? What are materials made of?

Rocks What are rocks? What are rocks made out of? Where do rocks come from? How are rocks the same and different? Do rocks dissolve? How long does it take to dissolve rocks in nature? What evidence would suggest that these rocks are undergoing chemical weathering? How are igneous rocks formed? How are sedimentary rocks formed? How are metamorphic rocks formed?

Soil What on Earth is Soil?

Minerals What are minerals? What is clay? Where does clay come from? What properties are used to describe minerals? How many minerals are there? Native Elements ~ copper, silver, gold, nickel-iron, graphite, diamond Sulfides ~ sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, pyrite Halides ~ halite, fluorite Oxides & Hydroxides ~ corundum, hematite Nitrates, Carbonates, Borates ~ calcite, dolomite, malachite Sulfates, Chromates, Molybdates, Tungstates ~ celestite, barite, gypsum Phosphates, Arsenates, Vanadates ~ apatite, turquoise Silicates ~ quartz, almandine garnet, topaz, jadeite, talc, biotite mica Energy minerals are used to produce electricity, fuel for transportation, heating for homes and offices and in the manufacture of plastics. Energy minerals include coal, oil, natural gas and uranium.

Water What is water? How is a water molecule built up? How much does a water molecule weigh? What happens if water changes phase? Why does ice float on water? How come not all substances are water-soluble? What is hard water? Which physical and chemical properties does water have?
